U.S. Getting Involved

U.S. Getting Involved

The U.S. is always getting involved in wars that are going on in other countries. About 44% of Americans believe that this is good, and 56% don't think this is a good thing. The U.S. try's to help these other countries that are in war, but there are a lot of problems when the U.S. sends military aid to these other countries.

The people who want the U.S. to help these other countries say that it is the right thing to do and the civilians need a better and safer life. But, the U.S. is in a lot of debt and cant afford to keep sending troops and supplies to these countries. Also it is risking the lives of american soldiers to go fight in someone else's war.

"In this financial year we will be spending at least $1.5 billion on foreign aid and we cannot be sure that this money will be properly spent, as corruption and mismanagement in many of the recipient countries are legend."

"Foreign aid projects have pumped billions of dollars into the Afghan economy."
